Tablet

[Rev Dark]

I am considering getting a drawing tablet for my PC - Anyone have any experience with various models/brands?

Cheers,

Shayne

Unless you find a specialist shop or website... you're pretty much stuck with WACOM for the manufacturer.

They have three ranges, IIRC.

Bamboo - The entry-level dabbler series

Intuos - The mid-range for serious amateurs to cash-strapped professionals

Cintiq - Cha-ching, mad lewts, tends to be a "tablet" of the "hey, here's an extra monitor screen and you DRAW on it!" variety.

Most of these come with a pen stylus, and the Bamboo have recently stopped shipping a mouse with them, instead going for multi-touch functionality.
